The professional body representing the countrys landscape architects, the New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects (NZILA), says it welcomes confirmation by Auckland Mayor Len Brown that he will set up a study to consider the full impact of Ports of Auckland on its surroundings.
NZILA spokesperson for urban issues in Auckland, Sally Peake, says its important that all the facts are on the table before the Port proceeds with any expansion.
"We totally support a robust examination of the Ports environmental, social and economic impacts on Auckland, and landscape considerations in particular. Only once a study based on fact has been completed, can an informed decision be made."
All landscape architects have a responsibility to ensure that the distinctive characteristics of landscapes are not compromised through insensitive or inappropriate change, says Ms Peake.
"We have a duty of care over New Zealands unique landscape assets, such as the Waitemata Harbour, and this is exercised by ensuring our assets are managed in an appropriate and sustainable way. This study is therefore a welcome development."
Ms Peake says the NZILA will not take a position in support of or against the Ports expansion plans. While individual NZILA members are free to form their own views, the role of the Institute is to ensure due process is followed in considering the landscape impacts of any project. This would include a robust assessment of the landscape and visual effects of any development.

KUCHING: The recent amendments to three bills to liberalise professional services raised concerns over the level of competition from foreign architects against the local waning amount.
The Malaysian Institute of Architectss (PAM) deputy president, Zulhemlee An highlighted this concern on the sidelines of the Building Trade Show 2015 yesterday at the Borneo Convention Center Kuching.
He noted that there is a shortage of architects locally due to the low passing rate in the final test which deterred most students to become professional architects.
The final test known as part three is taken after a student completes a masters course.
Despite the small amout of architects, as long as we are competitive enough to provide the best service to our clients, we will be alright.
We (as architects) must support each other, the mechanism is already in place but we have the advantage as we know the certifications which they have to go through, in a way we are still protected, said Zulhemlee.
We must now also look to export our services overseas, Asean architect council has promoted for Asean architects to work together by collaboration.
We Asean are different as we like to collaborate as compared to modus operandi of western architects which targets the best projects and leave, he added.
The number of architects in Malaysia is growing very slowly, currently with only 2,000 corporate architects under PAM. Last year, the passing rate of the part three exam was a mere six per cent.

For the third consecutive year, most insurers providing professional liability insurance for architects and engineers saw their premium rates increase modestly in 2014, as expectations of larger rate hikes were tempered by steady competition.
A new survey by insurance broker Ames & Gough finds a majority of these insurers are anticipating further modest increases this year, albeit at levels below their gains in prior years.
According to the Ames & Gough survey of 14 leading insurance companies (which, on a combined basis, represent more than 75 percent of the overall marketplace providing professional liability insurance to architects and engineers in the U.S.), 64 percent had rate increases last year, 29 percent had flat rates, and one insurer lowered its rates. The survey revealed that the size of any increases achieved in 2014 were significantly below insurer expectations at the start of that year.
For example, as 2014 began 22 percent of insurers planning to raise rates expected to see increases of 6 percent to 10 percent; however, only one insurer actually had such gains. The majority (88 percent) of these insurers had actual increases of 5 percent or less.
This year, eight of the 14 insurers surveyed are planning increases; six expect to keep rates steady. Of those planning higher rates, 87 percent expect increases of 5 percent or less.
While the professional liability insurance market generally remains competitive, insurers are sharpening their focus on sound underwriting and carefully assessing the performance of their overall book, said Dan Knise, president and CEO of Ames & Gough. In this environment, many insurers continue to vie for relationships with smaller design firms, considered by underwriters as lower risk, and those with a good loss history and well-established and documented risk management programs.
The survey showed that half the insurers planning increases consider rates to be inadequate, primarily due to successive years of premium reductions from 2005 2011. Some 25 percent cited historic claims experience (losses going back more than two years), and one insurer each pointed to loss experience with in the past two years, inflation, and underwriting criteria as reasons for seeking higher rates.
Insurers responding to the survey remain committed to the architects and engineers professional liability insurance market and capacity remains stable.
For any individual qualified insured firm, two of the insurers surveyed can provide up to $25 million in limits; two, up to $15 million; two, up to $10 million, and four are willing to provide up to $5 million in limits for an individual account. In addition, with multiple insurers able to participate on any individual firms program, larger publicly traded design firms can access $100 million in limits or more.
Insurers also are keeping a watchful eye on factors driving up claim costs. While claim frequency appears in check with only 7 percent of those surveyed experiencing more claims last year, the size of average claims are up 43 percent reported higher claim severity last year. While respect to claim costs, 36 percent of the insurers surveyed cited increased defense costs as an emerging cost driver. As to their largest single claim payment in 2014, 71 percent paid a claim of $1 million or more, including 14 percent reporting their largest claim was between $10 million and $19 million.
